All those questions you asked answers solely depends on you (meaning your body, your experience,etc...) When in doubt just do whatever you usually do leading up to personal records.

5weeks isn't really enough time to get stronger, its just enough time to PEAK for a meet, meaning, there is a difference between building strengths and overcoming weakness opposed to honing your skills and techniques in preparation for a new one rep max.
